Subject: My Last Show

This was the last one for me. I hadn't been to a show for a couple of years, since I was burned out on all the negative stuff that was going on. It was strange, though, but when this show was announced, I really felt like I had to go. I'm glad I did! I ended up seeing lots of old friends, and it seemed like it was meant to be... As for the show, I enjoyed the Althea, China > IKYR, UJB, and it was great to hear Phil sing on Broken Arrow! And the Stella Blue was nice. Jerry's voice sounded good, considering. It was a magical show for me, and a good way to go out after 21 years. Thanks Good Ole Grateful Dead!

Subject: Better than most of 1995

The first half of 1995 was not the train wreck that the summer tour turned into. I still suspect it was the combination of cooler weather and indoor shows. Why? Without the summer heat, Jerry's weight and heart issues were not magnified. He was still smacked, and bored with the Dead, but all that meant was uninspired playing. Would also explain why the Albany shows were better than the outdoor shows. Simple truth, a 300 lb diabetic with heart issues that smoked and didn't follow proper dietary routine, would have been lucky to survive summer tour. Add in the smack, and we know how it went. The biggest shame is that Jerry had no interest in bypass surgery or other procedural options back when his heart issues first discovered, opting for a holistic approach. Which only works if the patient avoids drugs and tobacco. Look at Crosby.... he has had bypass surgery and has stents. He knows he's on borrowed time, but he's still with us...... Anyway, I've digressed. Really not a badly played show. And Jerry's vocals are solid....

Subject: Great shows

Even in they’re final days with Jerry they still sound as amazing as when they started 29 years prior... 💀⚡️🍄🐢🎸

Subject: great show

Subject: whatever

Don't diss phil's voice and wrap it up like you are complementing him in your review. Bob's smooth voice? Maybe. Phil's voice it majestic to me. Nowadays, I can barely handle how Weir has evolved since 95. For some reason, people like to pretend like it is a 'givin' that everyone thinks phil's voice sucks. What's worse is when people throw him a bone by mentioning how they were suprised at how good he sang on whatever song. Get this: Phil vocals are and always were awesome, and rooted in what the very definition of Grateful Dead music is and what always was and will be. Phil is the man. I never heard a phil tune I didn't dig.

Subject: Broken Arrow ROCKS

I must confess to a soft spot in my hear for Phil and this song in general. He does not has the smooth? delivery of Weir or the vocal majesty that was Garcia. However his heart shines true! Oh and the rest of the show rocks as well.LOL

Exc Recording
And very good show; moving ahead the whole time. Always crossing your fingers in this year, but a very nice string of moments in this one and some truly high moments.

Subject: Friday Night's Alright

Unfortunatly, Sat and Sun are overshadowed in my memory by Friday night's life changer. However, I will never forget the last five tunes, and how bout Unbroken Chain. Yeah, yeah... not like they could have done it in the '80's, but... did they?
God Bless The Grateful Dead

Subject: My last show -- it was good enough way to end it

My last show, so it all ended on a good enough note. "A" quality AUD sound, as is typical for good old reliable Shoreline. Had just come from a positively crappy show and scene in Portland (5/28/95), and was about to swear off shows altogether when this positive experience happened...so my wife and I decided that we'd only go to Bay Area shows from here on out. Althea was a nice highlight, but there are others. RIP Jerry.

Subject: last show

My last so I went out on a surprisingly good note. Nothing overwhelming, but having witnessed the debacle in the desert 2 weeks earlier I was happy with the performance. Jerry's guitar is up and down. takes him half of bucket to start playing, but nothing compared to the East coast 95 shows. If you dig 95's this is probably a show that would be a safe bet.
